RETROSPECTION BY UP2DATE

1/18/2013

Hello.

I am fall in love with the current 2013 collection of a moslem fashion house, Up2Date. I think Up2Date successfully bring fresh air to moslem fashion style of 2013 with its 60 collection showed January 8th, 2013 at Mulia Hotel, Jakarta. The theme of her collection was "Retrospection", that inspired much by 50's - 60's era. I love the way she divided her collection into 4 sequences at their Retrespection fashion show, that is: Ocean Motion, Country Retreat, Femme Valiant, and Luxury Looks.

Ocean Motion is more about nautical pattern, while Country Retreat reminds the audiences with the atmosphere of 50's country. And then Femme Valiant showed brave and bold character of a woman, while Luxury Looks showed party outfits at 60's era. My most favourite is the colured used by Up2Date at their Retrospection theme since I can't help myself when seeing "earth colours", brown, red, and dark blue which are so vintage and nice to see. And oh this time Up2Date used linen and cotton much for their collection, rather than their usual jersey and spandex materials.

Here are the collection:

Retrospection by Up2Date - Ocean Motion

Retrospection by Up2Date - Country Retreat

Retrospection by Up2Date - Femme Valiant

Retrospection by Up2Date - Luxury Looks

For me Up2Date Retrospection collection is such a huge inspiration for my 2013 style. What about you?

Yet, being a double outsider (male and non-Muslim)I wonder why should the company restrict itself to fashion defined by religion. Isn't it a pity they don't apply there creative talents to the rest of the female humanity as well?

This design is steller! You certainly know how to keep a reader entertained.Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost...HaHa!) Great job. I really enjoyed what you had to say,and more than that, how you presented it. Too cool!
